Author(s)
Ian Soboroff, George Awad, Asad Butt, Keith Curtis
Evaluating information access tasks, including textual and multimedia search, question answering, and understanding has been the core mission of NIST's Retrieval Group since 1989. The TRECVID Evaluations of Multimedia Access began in 2001 with a goal of

Enabling Robot Agility in Manufacturing Kitting Applications

March 14, 2018
Author(s)
Zeid Kootbally, Craig I. Schlenoff, Brian Antonishek, Frederick M. Proctor, Thomas Kramer, William Harrison, Satyandra K. Gupta
For the most part, robots perform best in highly structured environments, where objects are in well-known, predictable loca-tions. Another way to describe this is that robots are not considered agile. But, in order for them to be useful to small manu

Introduction: Special Issue on Enabling Robot Autonomy

March 14, 2018
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Henrik I. Christensen
Today's state-of-the-art robots are capable of sub-millimeter movement accuracy when performing highly repeatable tasks. They perform extremely well in highly structured environments, where objects are in well-known, predictable locations. However, robots

Integrating views of properties in models of unit manufacturing processes

December 28, 2015
Author(s)
Peter O. Denno, Duck B. Kim
This paper investigates the potential advantages and pitfalls of directly integrating knowledge expressed as predictive model equations with other process knowledge. The context of this integration is models of unit manufacturing processes. The method
